Adeia reports Q1 EPS 38c, consensus 33c

Reports Q1 revenue $104.77M, consensus $99.72M. “We had a strong start to 2026, delivering first quarter revenue of $105 million, generating $58 million in operating cash flow, and maintaining strong profitability with a 60% adjusted EBITDA margin,” said Paul E. Davis, chief executive officer of Adeia (ADEA). “We closed eight license agreements during the quarter, three of which were with new customers, including multi-year agreements with AMD and Microsoft. We believe our deal execution year-to-date highlights both the strength of our IP portfolio in our core markets, like Pay-TV, consumer electronics and social media, and our ability to expand our business with new customers in growth markets like semiconductors and e-commerce. Our non-Pay-TV recurring revenue continued to grow, with an impressive 28% year-over-year increase in the quarter, reflecting progress in diversifying our business. We are excited to see our foundational innovations gaining broad market adoption. Most importantly, hybrid bonding is rapidly being designed into products for the logic and memory markets that are supporting the AI ecosystem. We also remained disciplined in our capital allocation, reducing debt to less than $400 million while continuing to return capital to shareholders and invest in our patent portfolios, including tuck-in acquisitions.”
